The vehicle inspection program in New Jersey has made changes in recent years that many people may not know about. Some of these important changes were made to commercially registered vehicles as well. If you’re unsure whether your vehicle has a commercial registration, check your registration card and look for the “registration code 11”. The license plate of the vehicle will also begin with an “X” if it is commercially registered. These vehicles fall under different guidelines than regular passenger vehicles and here are a few of the important factors you need to know about the process.
An emissions test is also necessary for commercial vehicles. The actual requirements can vary depending on the weight of the vehicle and whether it’s gasoline or diesel-powered. We will make notes during our inspection of which category your commercial vehicle falls under to ensure the proper requirements are met. The good news is our customers aren’t required to keep up with the various standards, and our experts know exactly what to look for and test during the inspection process.
All our customers need to know is when their annual inspection is due, which can be found on the registration card or sticker. We understand taking time out of your busy day to get your commercial vehicle inspected can be a burden. This is especially true when you have multiple commercial vehicles in your fleet that may have annual inspections due at the same time. Our goal is to provide the most accurate and thorough inspection as quickly as possible so you can be back on the road.
